And It's Not Even the Weekend

Golly:
  • A 15-year-old boy was shot and wounded in his lower back early Tuesday in Chatham. The shooting occurred in the area of East 79th Street and South Ingleside Avenue shortly before 3 a.m., according to police.
  • A 15-year-old boy was released from the hospital Tuesday while his 11-year-old friend remained in stable condition with gunshot wounds in her leg and face after the two were shot Monday on the Far South Side.
  • Two teenagers shot standing on a South Side street corner ran to a nearby fire station seeking help Tuesday night. A 15-year-old and 17-year-old male were standing on the corner of South Blackstone Avenue and East 67th Street when they were both shot in the arm,
  • A 9-year-old boy and a 22-year-old man were wounded in a shooting on Chicago's South Side Tuesday evening, and a woman was shot in the parking lot of Jackson Park Hospital after the boy arrived there for treatment, authorities said. It was not immediately known if the shootings were related. The boy and man were on the street near 78th Street and Constance Avenue about 5:30 p.m. when someone fired shots from a passing vehicle, police said.
  • A teenager was shot and critically wounded Tuesday night in a church on Chicago's South Side, authorities said. A boy, age 15 or 16, was shot multiple times about 6:30 p.m. in the 9800 block of South Throop Street, Chicago Police Officer John Mirabelli said.
Shot in the church? Gee, maybe these so called "churches" and "reverends" have closer ties to the gang, drugs, gun trades than the media is actually reporting? But we're sure they'll find some way to blame the police anyway.

Maybe momma and auntie can find a media camera and spout off about how "We expect our children to be shot by the thugs and the reverends, but not by the Chicago Police. That's just wrong!"

A Chicago Police officer is in critical condition after being shot early Wednesday near a Northwest Side police station.

A police officer was shot about 2 a.m. at the 3200 block of North Western Avenue, Fire Media Affairs Director Larry Langford said.

The officer was taken to Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center in critical condition, Langford said.

Belmont area and district headquarters are at the 2400 block of West Belmont Avenue.

OMG..
POLICE OFFICER KILLED!
POLICE OFFICER WITH OVER 25 YEARS ON THE JOB WAS SHOT IN THE HEAD IN 019 WHILE HANDLING A DISTURBANCE WITH A FEMALE ON THE CTA BUS!

AT LEAST THE BITCH IS DEAD..

Explain to me why a veteran officer who has put his time on the job is working patrol on midnights? When we have worthless pieces of shit officers with less than 5 yrs. working the desk and as watch secretaries? I know this guy was working in 019 which is a slow district, but still he should have been somewhere safe like 35th and Mich. enjoying the few years left before retirement where the worst thing that could happen is a paper cut. I'm so disgusted with this department and the politics involved.

I could only guess here..
But why do I have a feeling that the story is going to go like this...
Veteran officer working 99 due to man power shortage in 019.. Responded to a call of disturbance on CTA with a female.. Officer responded to job and was killed...

Let me guess.. man power shortage due to rapids, beat cars and tact officers in 019 being sent to some shit poor area to protect the shit poor citizens who don't have jobs and don't pay taxes and leech off the descent people on this earth...
Veteran officer working midnight patrol because some Juice Baby got a coushy spot as a watch secretary, desk or headquarters..

PLEASE POLICE THE HOMES OF POLICE OFFICERS AND BACK EACH OTHER UP EVEN ON THE MINUTEST JOBS!

PLEASE TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER AND STOP AND GET OUT THE CAR FOR OTHER OFFICERS!

THE COMMUNITY IS AGAINST US,
THE MEDIA IS AGAINST US,
THE POLITICANS ARE AGAINST US...
LET'S BE THERE FOR EACH OTHER..
BE SAFE. GOD BLESS.

National media seems to have missed the intent of Senator Obama's "Faithbased Initiative". It is modeled squarely on the Daley church/patronage program. It is an attempt to bribe Protestant churches and make them auxilliaries of the Democratic party. He is also going to force these churches to perform homosexual weddings if they take the federal funds. Obama is well aware of the muscle provided to the Machine at election time by criminal gang members organized by store-front preachers.

Right about 2300 last night,(don't tell me these assholes don't know when we change shifts), an 8 year-old is grazed in the face by a bullet in the 900 block of Laverne. Why he is outside aside, for once the good guys catch a break and get a good car/offender description.

Not sure which unmarked started it but our ears were glued to our radios in 010 hoping that they would come toward us. The chase was on, a marked car took the lead, the dispatcher and the officers were real clear and cool as the pursuit progressed for some distance and out of 011 and thank-you 1199 for your blessing. The bad guys dead-ended in a school yard, bailed and were captured with their guns.

Great job all around!

I have been meeting with all the ministers and we have decided your shooting to kill is very bad so i am coming up with a new special order. An officer must learn to shoot to wound and of course to shoot in the leg so i am making every officer complete a 3 hour training session to practice shooting in the leg and arm.I am also adding that before an officer is able to use deadly force he must first say pretty please drop your weapon at least three times. In case of an officer shooting the ministers need a briefing so for now on you will be required to give a statement to the nearest minister withing two hours of a shooting and if he can not understand your proper english an ebonics translator will be available on call from operations command.Officers please always remember my first priority is to keep mayor daley happy,the ministers second and your well being third and if you remember that fact and say pretty please to all the gang bangers before you force you will have a long happy career....j fed

St. Margaret's Church is a traditional Catholic Church and school, that has many former parishioners, including P.O's, who attend their Sunday Mass. This church is bordered by St. Barnabas on the west and if you are looking to fulfill your Sunday obligation quickly, Father Mallette says mass in about 30 minutes. Father Mallette has been there for many years, works very hard for his parish, and is a true friend to many of the former parishioners. The area surrounding the school and church has gang problems, which is probably the source for this shooting. Please do not catergorize this church with the south side reverends and Father Pfleger. The church and school work very hard to keep safe, and usually have off-duty P.O's around for their functions.

Please keep your thoughts and prayers with victim and the people of St. Margaret's.

How about those religious zealots taking all those IRS Charitable deductions to maintain bogus churches. There cars, property taxes, other expenses are all write-offs. For what? We need tax reform and a closer look at who's getting these tax breaks and what is a real church.

Like Rev. J. Wright's multi-million dollar retirement house. The church owns the house? I'd like to retire and have the church pay for it all too (tax free. Sounds like tax fraud to me.

Wright hates America but he loves the Internal Revenue Service's tax code doesn't he.

Wright hates American but stays in America to retire?

The world is a big place, so why stay in a place you don't like, respect or believe in? You can find thousands of expatriates all over the world. Why ain't the Reverend Wright one of them?

Per the law no. Per court decisions yes.

Although the law technically allows one to posses a firearm without FOID in the performance of one's duty; courts have held that shopping or eating, for example, even while in an on duty status is not in the performance of one's duty therefore, said decision creates a de facto policy of requiring on duty officers possess an FOID.

Our general orders have even been changed to reflect the decision.

It is actually required if one never wants to run afoul of the law.

Don't forget eddie burke with 6, the treasurer with a few but stragely the big balls city clerk refused any bodyguards stating "I am a man and can drive myself not a pansy like the rest" great statement how about it boss why does king eddie need so many 2 at all times why not 1 so he could sit in front seat! Why the treasurer no one even knows who she is she could have her big ass drive herself like the clerk does why not? why do burkes guys have a schedule 2 on 3 off and overtime who is the timekeeper?

Most of us have thought about it and a few have said that it's just a matter of time before some officer gets killed because of no manpower. The entire watch was working 99.

OFF TOPIC-- not sure where to post this, so I'll leave it here. Simply food for thought, nothing more.... Many of us (myself included) either don't mind or choose to work 99 on the 3rd watch and on mids, however, there are a whole lot of us that have partners assigned to our regular cars that end up working 99 several nights per week due to a lack of manpower. It's not an "I'm scared to work alone" issue, its a "if I make as stink about working alone I lose my partner and car and work alone anyway" issue. I was talking with a couple coppers last week who were working 99.. both said how much they hate working 99, yet it's understood that they have to anyway. They are right, and its total BS that this job has come to this. Footposts are fully staffed, caps office is bursting at the seams, there are several timekeeprs, paper shufflers, and butt wipers sutffing hq and dist. offices to the gills while we are so short citywide that often the only 2 man car up is the wagon, provided it's not downed for R-service. Sure, procedure dictates that you wait for backup before you enter a hostile job, but in actuality it does not work this way. How many times have we all worked 99, gone to a routine paper job, and found out that the wonderful call taker had dispatch send you into a hornet's nest? Or pulled over a car for a pimpy traffic stop only to find yourself sweating a tad until help arrives...I'm not laying blame, second guessing anyone, just posting food for thought. We all know the risks involved, all know what can happen, but we also know that money that should be spent on manpower is instead going to olympics and social programs...what is it going to take for our city budget folks to hire enough of us to take care of each other? I'm not trying to relate this to last night's tragedy, I DO NOT have any knowledge of the cirumstances and AM NOT casting blame or criticisim of anyone involved--- simply, a lot of us have been reflecting over the last day or so, this popped into my mind, and I figured I'd throw it out there. Stay safe.

To all officers:

Please do a personal inventory of your equipment, please check and make sure your holsters are in perfect working order, not frayed, ready to break or just worn to the point that they are rendered useless on the street, and please all you guys that like to wear pancake holsters on duty, STOP, level 2 or better only please!!!

Make sure your mags are clean:no oil just take them apart once a year and clean the dust bunnies out with a tooth brush.Inspect for cracks,dents.Deadline any mag that is unreliable(throw away).

Detail strip your weapons once a year and clean/oil.Have a certified armorer for that weapon inpsect it once a year.

Clean/oil weapons weekly.We live in the salt belt and it can get into bore(ask me how I know).

Check all batteries and replace/charge on regular basis.Use quality power cells.Lithium good for disposables/long shelf life.

Clean and oil your handcuffs.Set up properly in your pouch to avoid fumbling.

Wear your armor always!!

Carry a backup gun.A .38 snubby is still a good choice.

Sorry SCC, but I cannot bite my tongue. Everyone should be outraged not only with the city but with the FOP. They all know perfectly well that the department is short a few thousand officers and no one should work 99 on 1st/3rd watch citywide. We should be demanding answers.
Next, this goes out to all the super cops out there that tells a dispatcher I don't need an assist I'll call if I need help. STOP THAT SHIT!!!!! Fuck this department and city, make them down a second car to handle a job since they don't have the manpower to man 10-4 cars. When the raps start accumulating maybe someone will do something about it. It should also be policy that a dispatcher MUST assign a backup unit even if the paper car doesn't want it.
I hope the officers family contacts an attorney and sues the city if they didn't have enough man power to fully staff the beat cars.

"Unfortunately, there is no such clause in the contract."


If this is true- which moron regime in the FOP gave it away?

Years ago- late 70's early 80's, after a couple of police officers were shot, group of police wives pressured the department to stop making their husbands work 99 after dark. If you worked 99 after dark-that is if you wanted to-you needed to have a waiver on file.

Came on in the mid 80's-when did this go away?

and in a related topic...

Rumor around our station today was that some garbage broadcast station had the flippin' nerve to let a goofball comment on the Francis' shooting -the woman said something to the effect of "He deserved it, they are shooting our children." Does anyone know which station? Where the hell is the FOP? Jody? The mayor?

The Media reports as they do because they've learned what style and angle sells the most advertising. The overall TV media market realizes that as much as it bows down to the lower intelligence levels of this nation, they get more revenue by modeling their news departments after the Springer show.

They know from market research and show longevity that the general population will watch their channel longer through the advertising if they can aggravate or incite their viewers. Pay close attention to the advertising that appears between segments during the afternoon hours.

People nowadays watch TV to get pissed off so they can rant their opinion. Much like this blog, people come here to see the latest foul event that pisses them off and they're given the avenue to vent. That's why many return on a repeat basis. If there were nothing but positive things said here no one would return.

TV knows intelligent viewers who don't enjoy the springerlike version of events that tend to incite or upset also don't fall for bullshit advertising. So why present the news in a fashion that caters to the intelligent consumer who isn't brainwashed by advertising when they can tailor the story towards those that will faithfully tune in to a channel that presents the news in a way that makes them feel better about themselves?

Shitheads (conspicuous consumers) are easily baited to wait through advertising until the story they want comes on in a version that makes them happy.

Per the law no. Per court decisions yes.

Although the law technically allows one to posses a firearm without FOID in the performance of one's duty; courts have held that shopping or eating, for example, even while in an on duty status is not in the performance of one's duty therefore, said decision creates a de facto policy of requiring on duty officers possess an FOID.

Our general orders have even been changed to reflect the decision.

It is actually required if one never wants to run afoul of the law.

I know this will bring on a bunch of nasty comments but as a W/C I do not believe anyone should go out 99 on any watch. Given that there are officers that prefer it. There are days when we come up with an uneven amount of people or someone calls for last minute time. I always ask the person who's partner is unavailable if they would prefer a partner to working 99. If they do I will find someone by taking a desk person and putting them on the car. But we all know there are people out there that no one wants to work with and those are usually the ones available. Often the P.O. states he would rather work alone. If that person stated they did not want to work alone or with the person I can free up from inside. ( and I really wish they would) I am more than willing to assign them as an extra body inside for the day and down the car. However when given that option they usually refuse and reiterate that they would rather put in a slip for time or go out 99. . I am not going to take 8 hours from someone who would rather work. Any ideas from you guys out there?

This is the way this shitty city and department works.

I work out of the 13th Dist. I did my time in 15 and in Public Housing. The midnight cars are 10-4 during the slow weekdays but are usually 99 during the weekends.

However, our fine Commander makes sure we have a traffic car up at all times and one or two civilian dressed cars up, even though the rest of the watch is 99.

Did I mention that we have no lockup anymore but have 5 people assigned to the desk job where maybe 2 citizens come in for reports during the 1st watch?

Let me enlighten YOU, cockbreath.


When the percentage of 'people of color' killing, raping, robbing and fucking over each other equals or is less than the same percentage of people not considered by 'people of color' to be people of color, then open your pie hole.

And when the percentage of 'people of color' equals or is greater than the percentage of people, whom the self-proclaimed 'people of color' define as not people of color, who understand and embrace the reality that, to have an income one must earn that income by doing useful work.

And useful work requires, at the least, the willingness and desire to learn what work is useful and how to do said work.

Try starting with picking up the garbage that covers the public ways in the neighborhoods where all these 'people of color' seem to find it so natural to shit where they live.

Try starting by helping a few of the children of the 'people of color' to learn how to do something useful, so they have something to offer an employer, besides bitching.

Try starting by being an example of what an honest, civilized, hard working, intelligent, thoughtful and ethical human being is, then complain that the statistics requested don't accurately reflect the realities of life.

Your problem isn't that people who are not considered people of color by those who consider themselves 'people of color' are dishonest, it's that 'people of color' are dishonest, in the most egregious and harmful way possible, that being, being dishonest with themselves.

What's stopping 'people of color' from helping others, starting with other 'people of color'?

What's preventing 'people of color' from doing the minimum to maintain the places where they live?

What are the obstacles in the way of learning anything and everything possible that might, or would, be of use in earning an income?

What excuses will you come up with?

Besides blaming everything wrong with your life on 'the white man'?

You've got it right, from front to back.

It's the officer's choice, as it should be.

Some don't have the respect that you do. And that's the problem.

Tru dat! JJ brags that he is staying at midway and due to all his bullshit grievances he will remain there as the bosses are "to scared to fuck with JJ"! Why is he not removed to call back before he strikes again?

This is the way this shitty city and department works.

I work out of the 13th Dist. I did my time in 15 and in Public Housing. The midnight cars are 10-4 during the slow weekdays but are usually 99 during the weekends.

However, our fine Commander makes sure we have a traffic car up at all times and one or two civilian dressed cars up, even though the rest of the watch is 99.

Did I mention that we have no lockup anymore but have 5 people assigned to the desk job where maybe 2 citizens come in for reports during the 1st watch?

Total bullshit.

Hey JK, nobody wants to work with YOU, which is why you are 99 most of the time.

"Let me enlighten you cockbreath. Whites own more homes therefore foreclosures are effecting whites more;there are more whites in this nation therefore more whites are on welfare. Don't pretend that every white family is doing well in this nation,because if you do you are lying and cheating those that are struggling from getting what the need.

That's the difference between you and I. I simply want decent,respectable neighbors, that's all. By the way you said I should not have moved into the neoghborhood. About 100 years ago that's exactly what the Irish were told when they started moving into the neighborhood;especially when they wanted to build Catholic churches. So,STFU!!!

No one is saying anything. Just tell us what the numbers are. Numbers relative to race, population, murders, welfare, foreclosures, etc.

I'm not Irish, but I think they did pretty well for themselves in the past 100 years. You can walk into an Irish neighborhood and I don't think too many are on welfare or commit homicides.

So, I take it that you're proud of all the churches you've built?

And all the good you've brought to the neighborhood?

And how much the neighborhood has improved since you've arrived?

Right?

That's only because no one in the court system has ever heard of "whiskey dick".
